Review Text: Not a "Pro" device, personal data concerns. Was excited about a Wi-Fi 6e router at a great price, but with that price comes some very large limitations. Was coming from a Velop Wi-Fi 5 setup prior. Here are the limitations: - No browser interface to manage router, must use app - WPA3 support is beta, is really WPA2/WPA3 not WPA3 Personal - No ability for advanced network management, can't configure a MAC address filter, which bands are in use, channels, anything - No ability to manually configure device prioritization Here are the privacy concerns: - By default, your email address and name are used and uploaded to Facebook to be used for targeted advertising not only by Eero, but any advertisers that uses audience targeting. You have to email them with a specific subject line to opt-out - By default, you are enrolled in a trial of their Secure service, which further uses your personal data - Your device unique IDs are collected and used for targeting products and services to you. This unique ID allows advertisers to create profiles and link activity across 3rd parties - Eero collects the unique IDs and MAC addresses of all devices that connect to your network With an extremely limited ability to manage advanced settings, no ability manage the device from a browser, you can only use the app, no ability to see detailed logging of traffic on your network or what the router actually is doing, limited support for WPA3...you would be better off spending more money and getting a Wi-Fi 6e router that does not obscure it's management functions and logging and provides finer-grained control over configuration. This is not really a "Pro" device. If you are a novice and want an inexpensive 6e router and are not concerned about your personal data, then this is not a bad option. If you want more control over your network security and desire more transparency, try a device like Linksys Atlas AXE8400. That is what I am replacing this with.
